You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother

I'm with elfary.

 

I won't be able to stop myself from whoring myself on the street (if necessary) to get them.

 

But I think I'm going to wait a bit, read some reviews, sulk ... 

 

But it's inevitable.

And no ... to also echo your comment above ... they are *not* easy to get apart (one of mine is much harder to pull apart than the other).

That said, I'm going to clean mine whenever necessary and if the connection ever loosens to the point that they no longer  perform even when cleaned? Then I'll certainly warranty service (I've had nothing but stellar experiences with Shure's return/warranty process, BTW...with both microphones and headphones but especially headphones. In fact, I got an early pair of Shure E4C's silicon tips stuck in my ear and wrote a sort of funny letter about how long it took me to get it out, which it really did and instead of sending me new nozzles for the E4C's, which I asked for originally, they actually sent me a free pair of brand new Shure SE530s *and* new nozzles for my E4C's; true story). I've also warranty serviced that same pair of free SE530's for a split cable later on and had no issues.

But give the cleaning method a try; you want to so shape the paper towel (with the toothpick) that it fits all the way in to the housing connector.

Best of luck.

wow even with that discount that is ridiculous..what the hell..I'm sure they will sound good but holy crap come on..I just recently lost my 535s clear version and I was and still am sad about it..I was thinking about buying a new pair cause I really liked the sound..but I seen a pair of heir 4ai's for sale with the upgraded cable from heir for 360.00 used only a couple months old so I bought them..brand new with the stock cable these are only 400 bucks..and it got to say for about a hundred less then the 535s they put shure to shame..my opinion of course..but I find these are very well balanced and maybe the mids aren't as lush as the shures but I think are very close..they do everything else much better maybe not as wide of a sound stage as I would Like but now I'm just nit picking..I think shure as much as u did Like them, just lost me..sorry shure but your stuff is over priced as far as I'm concerned..and these heirs are much better looking then the shures to..they are beautiful looking without going to over board...wow that's alot of money for universals...sorry my opinion...

Shure is not the kind of company that brags about snakeoil (like Beats).

Hence i'm convinced that this new flagship is gonna set a milestone in the history of universals.

All of i sudden i've forgoten about gettin' a 64Gb iPhone 5.

All my 2013 gadget expenditure is now aimed at this upcoming Shure product.

I think I'll get the 846's but I'll prob wait a year to see if the price drops. I just got a pair of w4's a couple months ago and with a new Shure flagship out I can prob pick up the 535(j)'s cheaper so I'll look for that in the mean time.

Any way you slice it, this is a good thing. Even if the price is prohibitive to even the most dedicated Shure fans.
